From your write up, you already know what to do.

I once had that kind of job and if I didn't leave it the time I did, I won't be where I am now.

With a 70k job, you can be a man sooner unlike that of 50k.

Never consider proximity when trying to move up in life bro.

Shalom

Ooasis:
kindly take time to read through and Pardon my errors pls.

I found myself in a situation where I need an advice.
I have a job on the mainland which pays 50k and I spend no transport at all. I started working there three months after my youth service with 45k, I wasn't satisfied with the job so I started searching for another, it(new job) wasn't coming so I decided to change my mindset and continue this for a while, after my grudges complaints to which the organization says they are not satisfied with my output and that they even wanted to lay me off, (which I knw is just gimmicks as I knw that I am there best staff) I got a raise to 50k after almost a year.
Why I don't like the job.
1. No productivity for a while now, not much jobs bringing in cash for the organization and I ain't happy doing nothing and earning at month end. I have talked to them about how to improve but they seem to want to move at there pace.
2. After the we want to lay you off saga, I feel like I really need to take my exit while the ovation is still loud.
3. I believe I need to change environment and meet new people, since here isn't interesting anymore, the workplace is not appalling and I am tired of the petty shits
4. The 50k salary will always make future job bargain allow recruiters look down on me and offer ridiculous pay.

I got a new job on the island 70k and I will be spending transport of 15k.
New environment, nice work environment and high career prospect cos it's an international organization with new challenges.

Cons
Thinking of traffic, the not to expectation salary and fear of uncertainty, kindly advice me what you think I should do.

Thanks, you may just have saved a life.
When I first read the topic I wanted you to remain with the 50k own but after reading your explanations in the post, go for the 70k own since you don't get job satisfaction in the first one. Job satisfaction is key, I hope you get it in the new job

Op, go for the 70k job. I took similar step about 4yrs ago to gain the experience that earned me a much bigger job 7months after. I earned 20 times my previous pay for a start.

The 70k Job with 15k transport is better than the 50k job no transport..my reasons are

1. you may not expend up to your estimated amount of 15k for transport. you may come across a friend or someone that you may join to and fro to ur work area thereby expending less on transport fare while saving your money.

2. U will make new contacts: business, marital, connection e.t.c. A friend of mine met his life partner in a commercial bus grin

3.A job with no transport may leave you being Lazy,

4. sometime your friend may even suggest that they want to use your house to do a quick crash with a Lady during work hours tongue

The reasons are numerous
